Hi
Thanks for the kind words! Check Section 2.2 of my Guide, you need to get your Vendor and ProdID. Hopefully these will match those I have tested in the table given - if not, let me know what these are and I will try to locate a suitable driver!

I'll try this when i get home tonight. One thing i've notice about your puppy-qc-usb-messenger-1.2.tar.gz is that it has a /lib folder. This lib folder would only persist after a reboot if you are using puppy2 or if you have done a hard drive install.

Hi

You are right the module will not persist in a non-hd installation. I will update the initialisation script to copy the module from /usr (which is persistent) and then copy it to /lib/modules ...

I will create a GetPup package for each as well to make it easier.

Next step will then be a script that autodetects the USB camera, looks up in a smal database the vendor/product and selects the driver, downloads this, tests it etc....

Well done, Nick!
Next trick is to tackle some of the sensors that have defied other penguin lovers.
You will find that many of these will sign up as Vendor - 0000 and ID = ditto.
I have a Creative with the notorious PD1001 sensor that does this and has not responded so far to any previous suggestions given on the Web.

It's great that we have a broad selection of add-on modules to support all manner of exotic hardware out there, but it's worth noting that this collection (including all 17 of my wifi packages) will become redundant with the release of Puppy2.

Hi!

Is this because they will all be included in Puppy 2?

Although I am sure it is debated here, why is puppy 2 not Kernel 2.6 - it is supposed to be much more efficient?_________________Nick
